* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: As its topic shows, WWWTJAW/Vs The Elite was made around not only the rise of the Modern Age of Comics, but the time period when the US comics industry was still reeling from the Comics Crash of 1996, the sentiment born in the wake of the Dark Age of Comics in how traditional superheroes like Superman were "dead" or "pansies", and interest in sequential paperback comics outside of the States, like ''Heavy Metal'' and ''manga'', were coming in its recess. Though not entirely their own fault, newfound fans of alternative comics from overseas were ''very'' critical of homegrown fare, being extremely vocal (and quite at times obnoxious) about how US comics were "overly morally simplistic trash" and were their own fault of being "for kids" by not showing more mature topics, like actively showcasing the act of slaying evil and showing more adult material. Naturally, this drew a lot of ire from not just dedicated comic book and superhero fans, but to also their creators, to which WWWTJAW is a major cornerstone of comic book superheroes' counterargument for having valiant codes of justified force and pacifism.
